The first rule of vegetarian club is: no goat's cheese. The second rule of vegetarian club is: NO GOAT'S CHEESE.

So, does anyone know of any decent veg food on LL? Our experience so far has been pretty dire. Ate at the Plough last night, or tried to... mmmm... "garlic" mushrooms with no garlic, lentil and spinach burger burned to a crisp, horrible fries. Recent veg sunday roast at the Uplands was smothered in meaty gravy. I find it hard to believe that our only options are the tex mex place (which I do like, but it's hardly a night out) the greek/turkish place whose name I forget, and a pizza in the EDT, Magdala or Gowland. Any suggestions?

uplands has lost it, management after management. some hope at the peckham rye caff in the park.

oh NIGHT out. tried the rye hotel? The pubs dont quite get vege_ism. Another reason to wish for a japanese (noodles yum!) joint here.

I dont think ED is ready for a full on quality vege restaraunt. i wish!

Theres 'ganapatti' southern indian cooking, on holly grove se15. Thats pure vegtastic and very good.

Im bleary, shouldnt be typing this early. Lets root em out. heh!

Peckham Rye Hotel is good, I agree.

Curry, ok. Chinese - many seem unaware that oyster sauce is not vegetarian. Thai - v. suspicious that there is often shrimp paste lurking in the curry base.

I know it's not exactly local but the Thai place in Crystal Palace is great and has two entire pages of veggie options. There's also a good veggie + fish restaurant called Domali there.


My personal favourite is Shahee Bhelpoori in Norbury - delicious vegetarian Indian food. I'm amazed that East Dulwich doesn't have a veggie restaurant - surely there's enough demand?


Btw can the second rule of vegetarian club be NO SPINACH & RICOTTA PASTA?

Delivery from New Fujiyama in Brixton? Lots of veg noodles etc - and are aware of the difference between 'vegetable' dishes and 'vegetarian' dishes (ie will specify when fish sauce is used). There are supposed to be a couple of nice veg places in Crystal Palace. But of course this lacks the advantage of actually being in ED :(

Aw c'mon.. if you're all so.. awkward.. as to demand vegetarian food, surely you ought to be happy with a tray of roasted vegetables with Cheese Of The Goat plonked on top?


If that's not good enough, drop by my place and I'll make you some fresh Spinach and Marscapone dumplings, crisped-up under the grill with a bit of parmesan and served with a red pepper and chilli sauce mmmmm

Went to Eat and Two Veg in Marylebone high street and have never been more disappointed in a meal in my life - we waited ages for our wine, and when it came it was actually warm (it was red but WARM) - the food sounded wonderful on the menu but I could have cooked better - and it was so unmemorable that I can't even remember what I ordered.


IMO The Gate in Hammersmith is the best veggie restaurant in London

obviously not in ED - but worth a try anyway.


My biggest veggie gripe is veggie sausages as the Sunday Lunch option - lazy and thoughtless.

ah Domali, we could use sumptin a little like that here. but better eh?

New york has places like angelicas and souen. Shame we cant here, have that type of restaraunt. Glad yu brought up petitou.

good joint (if you can get a seat)

if you dont wanna eat cheese, london is a bit behind the times. As this thread is filling quick I think vegetarian is quite big in this area. good.

totally agree on the roasted vegetables, pasta cheese thing.

no but thats generally whats in the shops , and convienient for catering.

ever been to a factory farm loz? I have, dont like being reminded of it. So sausages/burgers meat look alikes

are kinda dour.


bob, I was lucky enough to go to a wedding one time where kastoori provided the food. Result!


tooting is bit far though..

    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant. 
    • Still, I guess it could be a lot worse than water being thrown at you by these numpty youths during these warmer times? thankfully it wasn't the more dangerous mugging type youths that crossed your path waving knifes and guns in your face!  just a thought? hopefully these muppets will get sorted by plod soon, but don't hold your breath. 
    • Another dramatic spike the previous May 24 -  both crimes around the car park -  could this be related to the massively increased numbers of people around Gala time?
    • No, no need to shut down tfl, just cut out the unnecessary and expensive beauracracy, simples.  Sep, you don't even live here.
